33. Resurrection or Reincarnation?

Many religions teach that the soul is eternal and that it passes on from one life to the next, being incarnate in a new body each time. This teaching is called reincarnation. It contradicts the teaching of resurrection that says this life is the only life humans have before a bodily resurrection of all the dead at the final judgment of the Lord.

Mike Shreve of Shreve Ministries shares why he used to believe in reincarnation, how he used to teach others about reincarnation, how the Lord saved him and brought him to embrace the resurrection of Christ and the future bodily resurrection of all the dead, and how he explains that reincarnation isn’t logically consistent.

really? just as an aside before you give me the actual evidence from other, non biblical 1st century secular historians of the resurrection of jesus…
in the OT, the sacrifice was to be completely consumed either by fire or eating. theres a proverb that says not to offer then ask for it back… so if jeus rose from the dead, wouldn’t that mean the sacrifice was either not fully consumed as required or that the sacrifice was withdrawn?
careful how you answer, god is watching (or is it the NSA?)
